what are you taking exactly? "liver disease" is a broad term.

your test and estro levels seem to be in range. low, but in range. shouldnt get any joint pains, headaches, whatsoever from that...

high CPK? is that creatinine? do you really need to stop working out from that? the rise in creatinine from lifting doesnt matter at all if youre healthy, i dont know how this pans out for someone with liver issues though.

well, give us the reference ranges then
afaik estrogen is usually 20-50. yours would be perfectly fine on that scale. certainly not low and LOW estrogen is what gives joint issues etc. high estro = moodiness, gyno, etc.

your free test is on the low end. but still close to the normal reference range, so 1% off that shouldnt give you any issues

i have a buddy with high total test (1300-1400) and very low free test (not even half the lower reference range), yet hes one of the biggest guys at the gym and completely natural... not sure how these numbers translate to the real world tbh..

The reference range is 9.3-26.5. I've seen studies that say free testosterone is really important. My thyroid looks low also. The TSH is 1.4 and T4 is 0.81. Sounds like I've got a thyroid or testosterone problem or both?
that estrogen is pretty high then but not to the point that it should cause you issues... free test is most likely the more important number, but SHBG plays a role there too...

whats your serum total t3, free t3 and rt3?
tsh and t4 dont really matter as long as t3 is in range... you can still be completely fine even if tsh and t4 are way low
